“Twisted Prosperity” Update Now Available for ‘Nightmare Frontier’
A year after its Early Access launch, Ice Code Games is prepping to have their tactical turn-based strategy and extraction looter title Nightmare Frontier leave Early Access and launch in full. In doing so, the devteam has launched the biggest ever update for the title in “Twisted Prosperity”, bringing with it a radical reshaping in how you navigate the shadows, with survival now demands a sharp eye and even sharper reflexes.
The update introduces the Deadwood, a terrifying new “Fear of Forests” enemy that turns every treeline into a death trap. But you aren’t going empty-handed. The update also introduces a major new gameplay mechanic: during the game’s fast-paced and chaotic battles, players can now rely on a new bullet ricochet system, allowing them to make their shots even deadlier and more precise.
Twisted Prosperity also includes new items, side quests, gameplay tweaks and the expected bug fixes, which are detailed here. No date has been set just yet for Nightmare Frontier to leave Early Access, other than the nebulous Q3 2026 window.
Nightmare Frontier unfolds in an alternate version of 19th-century America, shortly after a mysterious event that forever changed the world. The line between reality and an unknown horror has become blurred, and those who remain are left to uncover what truly happened that night – and what’s behind the titular Nightmare.
If you were wondering just where Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy was all this time, you won’t have to wait much longer. Publisher Focus Entertainment and developer Asobo Studio have announced via a new trailer that the game will launch for the Xbox Series, Day One with Xbox Game Pass, as well as PlayStation 5 and Steam on August 27.
Pre-orders are open now, and include the Heritage Pack DLC and an in-game digital artbook.
Set 15 years before A Plague Tale: Requiem, play as Sophia, a fierce young plunderer, on the run and determined to uncover the secrets of her past. Dive into an original story blending combat, myth and fate with a brand new take in the universe of A Plague Tale.
Sophia’s journey leads to the Minotaur’ Island, where she faces deadly trials, navigates treacherous trails, solves puzzles, all while fighting and staying one step ahead of the army chasing her. But the true challenge awaits, as the terrifying creature hidden behind the myth will soon resonate with her.
Followed by many enemies, each drawn to the Island to reclaim a mysterious treasure, you must navigate a treacherous maze. Rely on your agility, tricks and sharp reflexes to outsmart enemies, perfect your parries, and unleash powerful strikes to survive deadly encounters. Players will shift between the Middle Age of Sophia and ancient Minoan times, where echoes of the past shape the battles of the present.
